A Journey to Cavafy’s Alexandria: Anna Boghiguian’s Watercolours

This exhibition at the Museum of Islamic Art is the premiere presentation in Athens, Greece of the work of painter Anna Boghiguian. Her watercolours act as guides, leading us to re-read Cavafy's poems and travel to the magical landscape of Alexandria. It is a voyage that appears lyrical, but also explosive and dark; a voyage that transports the past into the present, bathes Alexander in the waters of the Ganges and hides the Laestrygones and the Cyclopes within an urban landscape. The exhibition will be on from 15 May to 19 September.

The Anna Boghiguian exhibition constitutes part of the VIP Programme of Αrt Athina, the International Contemporary Art Encounter, which is taking place for the 16th consecutive year May 13-16.
